Ooooohhh, the shame! :)

It's a boxer and it isn't sporty.

But I am beginning to like it a lot.

Utterly packed with Gadgets and not to be owned out of warranty!

It is sporty ..... it's a GS ... Geriatric Sportster

[conkerman]

Lawn bowls is one of the most lethal sports

Also discovered today it is 2016 spec so has cornering ABS.

Nice!

The GS was always an accomplished machine.........

But - I'm truly surprised at how young you look - I expected you to be older (and not wearing jim-jams )

Enjoy the bike - it will be able to show your average R1100s/R1200s a clean pair of heels.

Nice!

You should have the heavier flywheel too. Much nicer in traffic. Quite jealous...

I wish I had a quid for every time I've stalled mine in the rush hour in the big smoke.....

Top color choice too...

You don't like my 2 piece Al?

I did need to order the low seat.

I have been (unusually) a very good boy and not give it a kicking. 600 mile service on Saturday then Game on!

Its a very, very capable bike, although I preferred the engine on the Honda Crosstourer. The Triumph explorer engine was a lot more exciting, but the sort of exciting which may explode at any time.

I was sorely tempted by the Crosstourer, but the combination of weighing as much as a small moon and my short legs was not a confidence inspiring combination. It was very, very 'Honda' though, and considering I hated my VFR800....

I never intended on ordering a new bike, but a reasonable deal was stuck and I made an impulse purchase.

Need to get a set of crash bars now.

Lovely bike!!! But then I'm biased cos it's the same as mine!! Crashbars £291 and 20 minutes to fit. Get a headlight protector as well - those LED lights are about £800 to replace Wunderlich do one for £75 ish which folds down to clean the lense
